Justin Bieber is one of the most famous singers in the world, but it seems like his name has been in the news even more, and he’s really been under a microscope ever since disgraced music mogul  Sean “Diddy” Combs‘ arrest. Because of the “Sorry” singer’s association with the Bad Boy Records founder, speculation has been almost constant, and his behavior has raised questions among fans.

But Bieber has had enough and is letting everyone know he wants the “lies” and “gossip” to stop.

Most recently, fans pointed to his behavior during the Coachella music festival when the star was seen smoking and appeared to be out of it.

Bieber took to Instagram on April 24 with a response to the chatter online, writing in part: “They treat me like a** out here, but if I remember that I am flawed too and God forgave me, it helps me to stop feeling better than those people who are mean and hurtful because when I’m really honest, I can be mean and hurtful too … My instinct is to be like, ‘Damn I wouldn’t gossip and spread lies about someone on the internet.”

Bieber followed that up with another lenghty post the following day with an image of a lion in which he asked God for patience and help saying: “Today I’m forgiving myself for my own selfishness, AND forgiving THOSE WHO SEEK TO USE AND ABUSE ME SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY WANT TO CAPITaLIze off of me, Or Their jealousy makes them want to make me feel small like how they feel.

“People have had to die cuz of this s***. Princess Diana is the first that comes to mind smh. We gotta do better please can we make a change?”
